Huge lake Issyk-Kul (1 603m asl) where you feel almost like by the sea, is the second largest navigable high mountain lake (after South America's Titi­caca). Thanks to mountain ranges, which rise only a short distance from the shores of the lake, you can enjoy swimming between glaciated four thousand meters high mountains. There is the road around the entire lake and as the result, the areas in its neighborhood are very well accessible and therefore also popular.
